Chiropractic is an effective non-surgical treatment for Low Back Pain and Sciatica

Low back pain and Sciatica are the number one reason today people are out of work. Chiropractic has been rated the most effective means of treatment for resolving lower back pain and sciatica. Billions of dollars are spent on medical care to correct lower back pain and sciatica. Yet, the most effective treatment is the least expensive and the simplest. Dr. Fred Schofield, at Atlas Chiropractic in Northwest Phoenix, has helped the thousands of people who come to his office suffering from lower back pain and sciatica, get back to work.

The Cause of Lower Back Pain and Sciatica

Physical, chemical and emotional stress can overwhelm the body’s resistance and twist the spine out of alignment. The resulting mal-alignment or subluxation, pinches or interferes with normal nerve transmission. This nerve interference affects the function of the glands, muscles and organs of the body. When enough abnormal cells are created from nerve interference, it results in pain. Only 10% of your nerves transmit pain signals. 90% of nerve function has to do with the control and coordination of bodily functions. Thus, by the time pain is felt, it usually means the problem has been going on for a while.

Correcting the Cause of Lower Back Pain and Sciatica

For your first visit at Atlas Chiropractic, Dr. Fred will run a detailed history, consultation, and examination. This helps him to determine if you have a Chiropractic problem. If he feels he may be able to help, then he may take pictures of your spine to evaluate the location and severity of misalignments. Once a specific misalignment with nerve interference has been discovered, Dr. Fred will then apply a specific adjustment to restore normal alignment and nerve function. In accordance with natural law, this is where healing begins; and all healing takes time.
